the State had the right to suppress

trated by disease, and did not recov-
er sufficiently to appear again in the
field till the Dalton-Atlanta cam
paign under Gen. Joseph e. John
ston. Lying sick in bed in south
western Georgia, paper brought in
to his room announced the evacua-
tion of Dalton without a battle. Re-
alizing that Gen. Johnston was short
of men, he started next day to rejoin
the army and was so feeble that at
about six miles on his journey he
was taken from his horse whilst in
the act of falling off and laid in
roadside cabin for several days un-
able to rise. However, he finally
met the army below Resaca and
served as well as his enfeebled condi-
tion permitted till after the battles of
the 22d and 28th of July in defense
of Atlanta, when at the urgent solic-
itation of his superior officers, he
went to the city of Macon, where all
that kindest friends could do to al
I leviate his sufferings was done. His
condition and positive refusal of an
honorable discharge from service rep
resented to the president, who nom
mated him as one of the judges OF
Gen. Bichard Taylor's Departmental
Military Court, with the rank of col
onel of cavalry. The senate con-
firmed the appointment, and he serv-
ed in that capacity till the surrender.
Returning to Memphis after the
war with feeble frame, he eschewed
all business and devoted himself to
the restoration of his health and the
care of the orphaned children of his
brother, William, and their own and
his sons education. In the fall of
1867 his health was so far restored as
to justify his marriage, and in Nov.
of that year he married Mrs. Mary
T010 "
E. Gardner.
Once more blessed with love and
home his health grew gradually
stronger, and in 1872 he was offered
and accepted the presidency of a
company composed for the most part
of Northern men who purposed in
vesting large sums of money in min
eral interests in Tennessee. This led
him toremove to McMinnville, where
he has since resided.
The latter years of Col. Munford's
life were spent in enjoying the COM
forts of his luxurious home, and the
society of his wife, his friends and
his books. He had a remarkable
memory, and his mind was well
stored with interesting reminiscent
ses. He loved to talk of the people
he had known, and of the things of
which he had read. We have known
but few men so interesting in con-
versation, and shall long remember
the many pleasant hours we have
spent with him. We were fortunate
enough to be numbered among his
friends, and as such regret deeply the
loss. May he rest in peace.
